Keng Lye

Ceci n’est pas une fish in a bowl. Our french just failed us there, but, yeah, that isn’t fish swimming in a bowl. Truly mind-boggling, Keng Lye continues to confuse us while leaving us in awe of his resin paintings. What you’re looking at are layers upon layers of resin alternating with paint to create a very realistic image of fish suspended in time. No animals were hurt in the process.
